I dumped my WRT54G a while back as I couldn't even assign it a 10.10.x.x IP
on my local network and flashing to DD-WRT or OpenWRT didn't work at all.
I'm currently running a Netgear router configured just the way I want it. No
problems whatsoever, except that the firmware update will not work in
Firefox at all. I had to switch over to my XP computer and do it in
IE...probably the first time I've used IE on one of my own computers since
FF was still in the 0.9x stages.
I haven't read much about their N routers, but I will be looking in to them
shortly as my next laptop purchase should have N capability.
